Here is a picture of PBS's 'Big Bird' as presented by that paragon of journalism called the 'Daily Kos' blog.
Poor Big Bird! Just tugs at yer' heartstrings doesn't it? Winter coming and that evil Mitt Romney wants Big Bird to buy his own lunch!
The Feds give PBS a half billion ($450,000,000) of OUR tax dollars every year to support this worthwhile kids program - as well as all of their news readers with the attitude and phony British accents that nobody - but nobody - listens to.
What many of those tax payers don't realize is that the Sesame Workshop CEO receives $956,513 - and that the Sesame Workshop drags in $50,000,000 per year from toy and consumer product sales.. Senator Jim DeMint does!
Yep, those little furry Cookie Monster pals make more than a whole passel of Mitt Romneys...... The full court press is on, and all their furry friends are now walking Capitol Hill lobbying for more money ---
Hopefully, Congress and the new President will be able to stave off this taxpayer ripoff at last!
BTW - Is there a single voter in the nation that thinks for a minute that Sesame Street Workshop will close down their Golden (bird) Goose just because they can't have our tax dollars to subsidize them?
